# Railroad storage tank facilities in Colorado — 74

> 74 Colorado facilities are recorded as railroad, carrying 208 tanks. Where they are and how many are still in use.

## Railroad

**74** of Colorado’s 19,762 registered facilities fall in this category — 0.4%, carrying 208 tanks of which 18 are in use.

### What this category is

Railroad means a category the Division records under this heading.

### Bare steel among these

**33** of the 74 facilities among these have at
least one tank recorded as asphalt-coated or bare steel —
44.6%. That is the material the federal upgrade rules were
written to replace: unprotected steel corrodes, and corrosion is how a tank
fails.

It describes what a tank is *made of*, not what
condition it is in, and many such tanks are long closed.
[Why it is still the number to know](/steel.md).

### Petroleum releases among these

**38** of the 74 facilities among these have a
release on record — 51.4%. Of those,
**1** have one that is *not yet closed*
.

**1** of them still have tanks in use.

Colorado records the *stage* a cleanup has reached, not
merely open or closed — characterisation requested, plan being
implemented, state lead. That distinction is the useful part, and it is on
each facility’s own record. [What each stage
means](/stage.md).

### A tank on a property in Colorado?

74 facilities are on the Division’s register in Colorado, 1 with a release not yet closed. This site tells you a record exists; it is not an assessment. Tell us the address and we pass the request to environmental consultants and tank contractors working in Colorado.

We take no commission and we recommend no firm. We have no arrangement with any contractor or consultant today — we are collecting these requests in order to go and find them. [What we do with this](/privacy.md).
